>>/5024/ First I want to defend Ashley because she's doing what she can and she's actually a really sweet and helpful person in her own way. We love Ashley in our run, not because she's quirky and stubborn and often crass and blunt, and kind of jerky but not in an intentional way, but because she's generous and caring and selfless believe it or not. I don't like anyone talking to her like that, if that's supposed to be Yulya's feelings on the matter I'd just leave the group if I was her, but I'm not and she won't because she's better than me in that way. It's not cool. You could have just said no, and she would have been okay with it. If it's not Yulya's sentiment, then stay out of it host! You don't see Bear there complaining about Yulya. >>/4989/ [Gwen from here on out] While we calm down Autumn, I'll explain what we're currently up against. We went to the guild where Freya met an old friend, the sorceress who handles leveling in Luskan, Sandra. So we're there eating dinner and a jerk lvl5 Ranger tries to pick me up, not the first time someone did that so I'm calm. He starts getting pushy, he wants to buy me a drink. Bear's about to empty his skull through the top with his maul and I quietly stop him and simply say no. But the gentleman keeps pressing the subject, he says something like, "that wasn't a question." [Gwen] So I look at Ashley for help, Ashley gives him the eye, boosted. So he's instantly shut down, Demoralized, and it felt great. So Bear 'escorts' him back to his group and the leader is an Electrum plate oathbreaker paladin, a real rude one, are they all like that? So he says, take care of your guy, he'll need it for the next week or so. The Paladin then challenges Bear to a dual. Bear obviously says no. The group is human 8th level paladin, two 6th level rogue half-elves, a scout and an assassin, and the 5th level human ranger. We are currently 5 all 4th lvl. So then the Paladin really wants to fight us and we found out later that's how they're leveling, just PK lords. Well they have a quest to kill a noble from another noble and the payout is a slave girl that's all trained and ready to be bonded. This pisses Bear off of course because he was a slave before (so was Autumn). The Paladin has the nerve to say, "you win, the girl is yours, set her free if you want, but we'll pay the rest of the fees for her [1000 gold or so, she's mostly paid for], but if you lose, you pay the fees and she's mine. Whether you accept and lose or don't accept she'll be my slave and she won't have a very easy or nice life." Basically. So Bear asks us and we're with him, what are we if not heroes and going against all odds is what heroes do. In other words, we're about to dual them. So there's more We find out from Freya's friend, the paladin is a duke's son, everyone hates him, and suddenly we have allies against them. Sandra gives us some pointers about their weaknesses and the forger fixes Freya's sword for free giving it even more power and wants us to beat them because her dealings with them have been strained as well. Sandra says they're going to be sanctioned for loose lips and for PK'ing all the visitors like us. She also says he likes to raise dead on the downed opponents so they can't even be revived, a real nasty guy, but this means if we get TPK'd by these people then they'll turn us into their undead slaves till we rot or die. Well we're out like 4:1 odds but we have a few tricks up our sleeves and that assassin that liked Ashley from the first night in Neverwinter has secretly followed us up here or happens to be here invisible in a tree as we stare down the other group about to go. As Bear would say, Shenanigans are about to go down.
